Mocha has the option to run tests with mocha debug, just like node debug, allowing debug within a REPL console.
How can I do REPL debug with Hapi Lab?

There may be a better way but I normally just do `node debug ./node_modules/.bin/lab`. You can still pass any flags you normally would to lab e.g. `-i 12 -v` or whatever. – Matt Harrison Jul 27 '16 at 15:57

I tried that and my scripts shows _chaged_ by Lab, and not as written. :/ – paulodiovani Jul 27 '16 at 17:42

Not sure what you mean there. – Matt Harrison Jul 27 '16 at 23:49

That was because I had coverage enabled. :) – paulodiovani Jul 28 '16 at 16:42

I just have to run node debug node_modules/.bin/lab *.js, just like @matt-harrison said.
The only tip is: Do not use coverage when debugging, since the coverage will change the original code and make debug difficult.
